Finding Rover
I’m a dog lover. My heart ache’s whenever I see a ‘lost dog’ post on Facebook, so I really, really want this app to end up being all it claims to be. It uses facial recognition to match dogs with user submitted ‘found’ ones. You also upload a photo of your dog, so if he/she ever gets lost, you are one step closer to finding him/her. I tried a few different photos of Pixel, and got an error message. I’m wondering if it is because she has a dark face & dark eyes, so it couldn’t differentiate. If anyone tries it, please let me know!
